      *You can call her Eva Marcille now, thank you very much.

      The winner of “America’s Next Top Model” formerly known as Eva Pigford has changed her name along with changing her management, reports the New York Post’s Page Six.

      "She's looking for a fresh start," an insider told the paper of her decision to give pink slips to her co-manager Tyra Banks and Benny Medina.

      It was Banks’ show “America’s Next Top Model” that turned Pigford from an ill-mannered Los Angeles teen – as seen on Cycle 3– into a successful, working model who now hosts her own fashion-related reality show on BETJ called, “My Model Looks Better Than Your Model.”

      The 22-year-old now has a new management team headed by Jerome Martin, reports the Post.

      Tomorrow, the runway diva will also officially announce that she is dropping her harsh-sounding last name Pigford and replacing it with her more palatable middle name, Marcille.
